My worst nightmare

Every night
while she sleeps
into her room
he slowly creeps
awaking to him
standing next to her bed
most brothers protect
but her's hurts her instead

she gets up the next morning
blocking it out
for fear if she tells
they would respond with doubt
her aunt leaves the house
and that nightmare begins
once again
she's alone with him
she runs to her room
and blocks the door
silently screaming
"i cant take it anymore"

an innocent soul
shattered by life
she releases her pain
through the blade of a knife
one day she decides
she's had enough
she's through fighting back
she's done being tough

the damage is done
it can never be fixed
so she grabs that knife
and slits her wrists
9 years of pain
she endured alone
now it's time for God
to take her home
